La-Fleur Mohamed: Muslim Whines Over Not Being Able to Dress Like a Desert Thug @ Gas Station

La-Fleur Mohamed, a Muslim for the past 12 years, says a Chevron employee humiliated her by barring her from a gas station because she wouldn’t remove her head scarf.

Um, it was a FACE scarf, not just a head scarf. See the photo above.

“You can’t come in here dressed like that,” Mohamed said the clerk told her inside a station store west of Boca Raton in October. The clerk allegedly tossed Mohamed’s gas money back at her and instructed her to leave.

Mohamed, 39, a Boca Raton married mother of four, has since been receiving assistance from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Muslim civil rights and advocacy group with chapters nationwide.

At a press conference in Pembroke Pines on Wednesday, she and the group demanded that Chevron officials admit that religious discrimination occurred. And they want Chevron to start additional training companywide so that such violations don’t happen again.

The group showed two letters from Chevron. The latest, dated Jan. 17, states the company reviewed the matter, didn’t see evidence of discrimination, but took “corrective action to address this issue.”

Um, here’s the “corrective action” I would take. I’d congratulate the employee for assuring the safety of the gas station and its other customers and employees and instruct all Chevron stations to do the same whenever anyone tries to enter with a mask on. It’s a huge safety risk that jeopardizes everyone involved.

“The parties involved for my public humiliation need to take responsibility and accept that they did violate my rights and apologize,” Mohamed said.

Woman, you already humiliated yourself by donning this silly face covering. You have NO right to wear a mask to a gas station. It’s no different than wearing a ski mask there.

Chevron spokesman Brent Tippen said Wednesday that Mohamed was asked by the employee to remove her veil, and when she declined, she was denied service.

But he said it was done for security just before Halloween, when retailers are prone to heists from people wearing masks and other facial coverings.

“We fully believe that our employee acted without the intent to violate Ms. Mohamed’s religious principles and any suggestion that discrimination is acceptable at Chevron is completely false,” he said. . . .

According to Tippen, the company regrets the misunderstanding. It has apologized twice to Mohamed, encouraged employees to “be more aware of potential diversity issues” and “continues to take Ms. Mohamed’s allegations seriously,” he said.

HUH? Why? Why apologize after doing nothing wrong? What allegations? She wore a mask to a gas station, she refused to take it off. End of story. Or it should be. But these Muslims want America to bend to their backward mores. They do NOT want to assimilate. They are a large, immovable rock in a supposed “melting pot.”

Mohamed [is] a native of St. Vincent in the Caribbean.

Would love to know her immigration status. Oh, and by the way, she’s been here 25 years. She’s the kind of “they’ve been here for 25 years” person that Newt Gingrich wants to give amnesty to.

Another Reason Niqabs Are Ridiculous & Uncivilized . . .

After the worker declined to serve her, Mohamed collected her money and walked back to her car in tears, she said. Her parents were in the vehicle waiting for her, she said.

“I was so embarrassed to tell them that I was just denied service,” she said.

With her car’s fuel guage on empty, Mohamed said she was concerned that her car would run out of gas if she tried to drive to another station. She phoned 911.

When a Palm Beach sheriff’s deputy arrived, the deputy unsuccessfully tried to persuade the employee to provide service, she said. . . .

Mohamed phoned a friend to meet her at Chevron and accompany her to another station for gas, she said.

Hmmm . . . she cried to her parents, called the police, called a friend, then called HAMAS’ CAIR. Wow, if being a super-devout Muslim is this traumatic and stressful, maybe she should choose a different religion. Oh, and try filling up before your gas tank is on empty. Good for the employee who did not fall to the intimidating pressures of a sheriff’s deputy.

South Florida’s Council on American-Islamic Relations often receives reports of religious discrimination, but Mohamed’s encounter was one of “the most egregious” recent examples of refusal of service, said Nezar Hamze, the group’s regional executive director.

“It’s important that this is publicly vetted so that our society learns that this type of behavior is unacceptable and un-American,” Hamze said.

Huh? If this is the “most egregious” example of “discrimination” against Muslims, it’s time for CAIR to go out of business. Um, the public isn’t completely made up of dummies. I doubt very highly that the majority of the public would see refusal to serve someone in a mask at a gas statoin as even remotely close to unacceptable OR un-American. What’s UN-AMERICAN here is the decision to wear a scarf that covers everything but your eyes out of deference to some backwards desert moongod cult from the Middle East. Also UN-AMERICAN here is demanding an apology over this and making a big deal rather than adhering to American standards . . . like showing your face if you want to be served anywhere other than at a Halloween costume party.

Wilfredo A. Ruiz, the group’s Florida legal counsel, questioned whether security was Chevron’s reason for declining service. He said security concerns no longer were a factor when a sheriff’s deputy also showed up to ask that Mohamed be provided service.

WTF?! Chevron can’t treat Muslims in masks better than all other Americans in masks. THAT would be the discrimination. Whether or not the cop was there is irrelevant. He won’t be there every single time someone drives up in a mask. Just ask all the gas station owners and employees robbed by people in masks.

Chevron’s Tippen replied that the deputy asked the clerk only why she was declining to provide service. The clerk explained she was following instructions to ask customers to remove facial coverings for the security camera.

Mohamed said she has lived in the United States for the past 25 years. She said she lived in New York and New Jersey before she and her family moved to South Florida for the warmer weather about eight years ago.

Again, what’s her immigration status? Is she one of those who would have been deported prior to the Obama-Bush policy of not deporting non-criminal illegal aliens? (She did tangle with law enforcement and violence. Read on.)

Mohamed said that over the years, she has drawn stares from the public for her traditional religious garb. She said she uses such moments to educate people about being a Muslim.

No education needed, you idiot. Oh, and here’s the MONEY QUOTE:

Her veil drew extra attention in July, when she was taken into custody on a domestic battery charge in Alachua County, accused of wrestling her daughter over a cellphone, according to an article posted online by the Gainesville Sun newspaper. It was her first and only arrest, and the charge was later dismissed, records show.

Her initial jail mugshot shows her wearing the veil. But she later was photographed again without the veil to show her face in accordance with jail policies, the newspaper reported.

The Chevron visit in Palm Beach County was the first time Mohamed was barred from getting service at a business, she said. She said she’ll never again visit the business.

You’re another example of how sick America has become. No Islam is not a race but I’m sure in your tiny head, you think you’re an equality hero. Course here you are trying to degrade a lady to nothing more than a sexual thing just because you can’t otherwise refute her POV. If you think you representat the average American, than society must be full of low-class degenerates.

If I can’t wear my halloween makeup out in public, to a store or while driving my vehicle, why should they get to wear veils that conceal WAY more than halloween makeup. This is America, if you want to be an American, act like one. We certainly couldn’t go to another country and get any sort of special treatment because our our differing beliefs…

Speaking of this story, I remember about a month ago or so, I was in my neigborhood and I went to the library around were I live and there was this muslim person wearing the whole burka outfit (the full ninja outfit as my woman Debbie calls it, LOL), I was sitting at a computer in that library around where I live (I have my own computer at where I live, so I don’t rely on the library to have computer access) and this muslim person sat a computer directly across from me, and I said to myself, “why the hell is man or woman wearing the burka in my country? This is not Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, Lebanon, Egypt, Afghanistan, Pakistan or any middle eastern country that allows women to wear that oppressive outfit.”

Thankfully, that muslim person didn’t pay me any mind. I saw that persons hand it looked kinda masculine instead of feminie and something told me that a man was underneath that burka outfit probably up to something suspicious, and NONE of the librarians said squat (I’d expect that from them)!

Now to you Stephen Barnett you woman-hating misogynist, if you were around me and spoke like that to a woman, I swear to god I would back-slap you across you’re ugly looking face. Is that how you speak to women you jackass? Do you talk to you’re wife or girlfriend with that language? Do you talk to you’re mother, sister(s), aunts, grandmother, female-cousins by calling them that four-letter anti-female misogynistic word? And Yasmin, thanks for giving that asshole Stephen Barnett a piece of you’re mind girlfriend, it’s women like you Yasmin (and Debbie Schlussel and also our female friend Skunky) who will save this country, because from a male perspective, the males have become weaklings!

Sean, you pathetic little squirt. You have no idea what you’re talking about – you post on here, so full of bravado, yet your words betray you. Your purile little story about being in a library is testament to that. On noticing that the person you feared had rather ‘masculine’ hands and was ‘probably up to something suspicious’ you were annoyed that the librarians did nothing. YOU WERE THERE!! You actually had the chance to DO SOMETHING. Here was an opportunity for you to fulfil your rantings and take control of the ‘masculine hands’ that were ‘up to no good’. But, you did NOTHING except rush home to write about it.

I don’t think you’ll be back-slapping my face any time soon, do you? Coward.

Stephen you’re the one who’s the pathetic little squirt you friggin coward and blowharded freak, I was there up close in person and saw that muslim person in the library who sat the the computer. And you’re right, I could’ve atleast took my chance to call out that person wearing the burka and told him or her that he or is in the USA, etc., but since I normally mind my own business I didn’t say much, and as far as I am concerned I didn’t remember seeing or hearing that person doing something suspicious, or whatever.

And you were the one who came over here and began you’re pathetic trolling by calling DS a disrespectful anti-female misogynistic word, and yes, if you were around me and you spoke to a woman like that, I will back slap you in you’re ulgy looking face you. So here’s my advise little Stephen, either you STICK to the subject, show some damn respect, make some sense or GTFO and go troll somewhere else you buffoon, because you’re not adding anything substinate to this discussion. I’ll be looking forward for Debbie to ban and block you’re ass from this blog of hers, and BTW Stephen you’re not man enough to shine the woman’s shoes you jackass!

You don t need a las degree to see how ridiculous Moh’s allegations are,but the idiots with the burka have an agenda,I ve gone to stores that have specific signs posted at the entrance asking for removL of hoods,face and head gear before going in,idiots like this woman have no place in our society…. hell their stupid ignorant murderous and opressive religion has no place in our society.

Damn these people make me freakin mad. It reminds me of that Florida drivers license case where another muslima wanted to wear her face mask for the photo. Why does she deserve special treatment? We are Americans, you come here, you abide by our culture, not yours.

I wonder when these same religion of peace advocates will sue banks and credit card companies because they won’t use a picture of them in their niqab on the card?

I think it is good to stand against the burqa and the niqab. I never want to wear them and I don’t like that many muslim women are forced to wear these items of clothing to please the male neanderthals in their families. I don’t like the purpose of the burqa and the niqab – that it is worn so that the person underneath can move around in public without showing who he or she is. To me not showing your face in public is in itself a bad act i.e. you are not honestly and openly dealing with the people you encounter. If you are not a criminal you shouldn’t have to hide your face.

This lady wants the rest of society to accept niqab-clad women everywhere in public – period. If she merely wanted the gas she could have asked her father to get it.

I assume that she was wearing the attire as she drove on a public street. The police should have arrested her for violating this Florida law.
876.13 Wearing mask, hood, or other device on public property.–No person or persons shall in this state, while wearing any mask, hood, or device whereby any portion of the face is so hidden, concealed, or covered as to conceal the identity of the wearer, enter upon, or be, or appear upon or within the public property of any municipality or county of the state.

You have a good point Old Scout. Trying to practice tribal customs in the modern world is insance. Also, prior to Islam in the Middle East, the prostitutes were known to veil themselves to avoid being identified. Veils were not just for modesty even way back when. The whole idea that seeing a woman’s face would induce extreme lust in a male would be insulting to most non-Muslim males. It is akin to the extreme feminist notion that all males are potential rapists.

I don’t care whether she is pretty or ugly. I just don’t like her trying to make wearing a burqa or niqab an acceptable fashion choice because once it is acceptable more and more people will do it, some willingly, some forced and some for criminal reasons.

Debbie, Kol hakavod to the Chevron clerk who told that bearded troll to take a hike. And a double Mazal tov for blowing off the nosy cop. I know about that particular gas station Debbie, and if you visit me I’ll take you there for a Kosher slushie, ciggies, and lottery tickets.

Everyone should just laugh at the silly and angry girl known as Stephen Barnett. He is obviously unreachable and when anyone uses the ‘See You Next Tuesday’ word it means they are insanely angry…and that makes me laugh because they have been pitchforked in the tuchis. Stab, stab, stab.

The smart peeps here know the REAL story on Islam and take it in stride but old, Stevie girl is so angry he throws the old “C Bomb”. I love it because we can discuss the grown-up issues like adults and baby Stevie has pooped his pink diaper. Wahhhhhhhhhh!

Skunky, I believe Stephen Dumbassnett has women problems, read his childish and ignorant postings, he calls Debbie the four letter anti-female misogynistic word and he called DS a “transvesite”!

WTF Stephen, you’re all of a sudden anti-LGBT people? I thought left wingers like yourself sucked up to LGBT people instead of bashing them? As I said Stephen, Debbie Schlussel is a brave, tough and fiesty woman who doesn’t BS from anyone, whether they’re you’re far-left ilk, anyone on the far-right faking it & BSing around or muslim front groups, etc. You Stephen can’t EVEN shine Ms. Schlussel’s shoes, hell, even my one-year old niece can beat this Stephen clown in a fight! LOL.

My fault, I should’ve said this in my sentiment when I responded to Skunky, “tough and fiesty woman who doesn’t take BS from anyone,”! Forgive me for my little error, I was thinking and typing pretty quick.

Yes Sean, you are correct on the girly and angry Stephen Barnett. You got him sussed.

He will remain pathetic and angry and we will remain learning about Islamic jihad HERE, we will continue to know that there is NO “moderate” Mooooooooslims and we will continue to get more and more knowledgeable from DS’ site.

And he will be so agro that the “C bomb” will not long help take the edge off his anger. But too bad, he will had shot his wad and can’t take his agro anger any higher…but we learn more and more while he disappears in a rage of anger like Rumplestiltskin. Haw-haw-haw!

I also hope that the gas station employee and owner stands their ground.

Michael Savage made a point a year or two ago that (paraphrasing) no Muslim woman should be allowed to wear a barqua, or face scarf, and live here in the U.S. (head scarfs are acceptable). If they want or feel the need to do it, then they should go back to the Muslim country where they came from. If they are here in the U.S., it’s because they want to be free from stuff like that; if they are here and are still wearing a face scarf, then why are they here?

Savage was (and is) spot on.

(Of course, Savage and I know why they are here, in which case, here’s another “screw you” post to them.)

If her parents were in the car, as she stated, then why didn’t dear old dad take the cash and go inside to pay for the gas?

If we are to believe that she was refused service due to the full ninja facemask (which I DO believe), then the quickest solution to this “problem” is for dad to go in and pay (since he is NOT wearing the full ninja facemask). Non?

Unless the real point of this whole sordid saga was for the Muslim girl to make a big deal out of this. To invoke this huge offense, and then to get all sorts of national attention etc and force the infidels to bend to their (Muslims) will over something as seemingly common-sensical as refusing service to masked patrons in a highly-criminalized industry.

One thing that struck me about this – her majesty Mohamed couldn’t do a self service? Or just fill a gallon or 2 or however much she thought she needed to get to the next station, and refuel there?

And her attitude when she was refused – call 911? She then calls a friend to accompany her to another gas station? What can the friend do if she runs out? Doesn’t she have a AAA membership, or are they as smart as Chevron as well? And that area must be really short on real crimes if a Sheriff’s deputy can be there to persuade a gas station attendant to fill up a car for such a whiny customer.

Let me explain the burka to you. It is the most illiberal garment you could invent that degrades the entire human race. It is offensive to women to have to wear a garbage bag, otherwise they’ll be labelled a whore and ostracised/punished by their community. It’s also offensive to men who are taught without this veil, temptation will turn them into savage beasts compelled to rape women because they saw a glimpse of her ankle!

Why does it not surprise me that this doesn’t a offend Liberal “man” like yourself.

Stephanie Barfette…Why so bitter? Why so angry? I mean we’re just talking about a piece of clothing here.
What’s pissing people off is the way the sand people are trying to insinuate their “backwards desert moongod cult from the Middle East” into our culture using the burqa as a wedge to force us to treat them differently…but I only echo what others have said and I doubt it will change your mind.

For your own good I’d suggest getting back on your medication. You obviously are still not over the effects of your gender reassignment surgery. It will take several years of treatment and psychotherapy but eventually you’ll begin to accept the “new you”…beeyotch that you are.

i avoid any cashier, clerk, salesperson, pharmacist, doctor…ANYONE who’s sporting muslim garb. just had to switch pharmacies AGAIN because they have a couple of muslimas back there putting drugs into the prescription bottles of infidels, if you know what you mean.

Correct me, but are there not cultural traditions in parts of the world where topless dress, er, uh or undress is traditional?
Why is it that this tradition goes unchallenged even by Larry Flynt?
Every culture has traditions, where traditions conflict the laws of the host country should prevail. In Yemen you can carry a dagger, you can carry an AK 47 with your face masked. That is not our tradition.
Getting back to the facts mam. I still claim we are in a state of war, having been fatally attacked repeatedly by the Islamic ideology. Remember the 911 hijackers clearly crying Allah Akbar(Allah is the greatest), the real actual translation, Therefore we cannot be blamed or claimed as being unreasonable for disallowing concealment of the face in courts, mass transit, banks, airports, or any business where security is an issue and where such garb, especially radically covered Islamic garb can be a used as a strategy for concealment or subterfuge.
Every time I hear Allah Akbar I hear Heil Hitler. It is a fact that muslims welcomed Nazis into their fold. It is traditional in our country to look askance at those that resemble the enemy which is actually not always intentional and therefore discriminatory. In this case it is clearly intentional, especially when done by so called “converts” with a criminal record. Fines are not enough, and detainment is not unreasonable, any person so dressed should be treated with the same suspicion as an abandoned bag in a public location.

Too bad Muslims don’t embrace the concept of “interest” regarding loans. Otherwise, she would have had a credit card to use at the pump, and wouldn’t have had to go inside at all……or was the incident pre-planned all along.

The fact remains, the old saw “When in Rome, etc.” should still apply. Upon entering the country, it should be mandatory to adopt the basic social customs of the host. I understand that human beings are, at the core, tribal in nature, and tend to gravitate toward others like themselves, but creating many small emirate colonies withing our borders is not healthy for continued harmony in the U.S. Assimilation is difficult enough without religion forbidding it, as Islam does. The word “diversity” always makes me shake my head. I have never seen the need for it.

I heard of this on a morning talk radio show-The ignorant host automatically assumed this woman’s word is impeachable, and stated it must be some Southern redneck who was the “racist” clerk. Hmm….Southern rednecks in BOCA? To be fair, though, most Arab Muslims I know don’t wear the full Ninja kit-A scarf and modest dress will do. It’s these fake “shock value” Muslim converts who insist on being anti. Hopefully she goes to court, loses, and has to pay costs. Damn, I was humiliated by a waitress not long ago-I didn’t know I could sue for public humiliation. My Granny was a real Muslim before she came to the US and declared herself an atheist. I’m more Muslim than this fake dope. I should put on a hefty bag and sue.

I am amazed by how stupid you make Americans look. Thanks for propagating our image as a nation full of back asswards pricks. Please keep these idiotic conversations at your KKK meetings in the future please?

I am a foreigner and I just stumbled upon this post because I found the title catchy.
I hate to say this but I used to think that USA was a land of equality and opportunities which it apparently is not. Plenty Muslims live in India too and women do wear the ‘burqa’ (or the ‘full ninja’ as you guys call it) here too. But people in India are a lot more tolerant than an average American.
First I thought that just the author of this post was a retard, but then I went through the comments section. As amusing as it might be, it still is pathetic on grounds of tolerance and equality.
I do not intend to use any profanities, neither do I want to blame anyone of you. I am just disappointed in the US. I know this comment would invite reactions against India as a nation, but I couldn’t care less. We don’t have that reputation to live up to. We are casteist, but still we are a lot more tolerant that an average American as evident form this post.
And for the record, I think the veiled woman was not in the wrong, nor was the gas station attendant. But the author of this post sure is a retard

I once was shopping a saw two ladies dressed in their Muslim garb out of the corner of my eyes and it scared me. If you look at them and not used to seeing this dress they look like the “grimm reaper”
Don’t understand why if they love their dress so much why do they come to a country which is not part of them. They need to stay home especially if they want to dress like grimm reapers.
